It was a simple but nice day today. It began at church, where our regular pastor was out of town, so we had a guest worship leader and our youth pastor, who is new to the church, gave the sermon. The worship was awesome and the sermon was excellent! He is truly called to do what he is doing. It is so inspiring to be in a church where the pastors are on fire for Christ!
When we got home, we did some things around the house and then went for a hike. I wanted to go up to the off grid cabin, up the High Trail and come down the Floor Trail. I’d not done this loop in quite some time and here pretty soon, the midges and mosquitoes will make it pretty intolerable to even be in the forest here on our trails.
I found some Trilliums blooming with a Vanilla Leaf directly below it.
There were some low growing daisies in a grassy section.
I snapped this picture of @silvertop on the way down the Floor Trail. I took this using the panorama setting on my phone. It creates an interesting ‘leaning’ effect on the trees.
The butterflies were busy dancing around us here and there as we hiked.
Jan spied a tiny ‘shroom which I promptly took a photo of. We aren’t seeing many as of yet this spring.
A baby Hoof fungus.
After coming down but before hitting the road back home, we stopped to check on Adam’s bees. 🐝
As you can see from this video, they were very busy bees!🐝
The lane was bordered with these purple flowers near the hives.
The bees happily working amongst the blooms were Bumblebees!🐝
The simple things in life-going to church, taking a hike, observing nature. It doesn’t get much better than this!
That’s gonna be it for today. Take care as always and enjoy the rest of your day wherever you are! 🙏🌎🙏

NKJV Psalm 19:1-14
The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.
Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech nor language
Where their voice is not heard.
Their line has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,
Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
Its rising is from one end of heaven,
And its circuit to the other end;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul;
The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
And in keeping them there is great reward.
